Comparison of ablators for the polar direct drive exploding pusher platform

Heather D. Whitley, G. Elijah Kemp, Charles Yeamans +36

We examine the performance of pure boron, boron carbide, high density carbon, and boron nitride ablators in the polar direct drive exploding pusher (PDXP) platform. The platform us…

Equations of state for ruthenium and rhodium

Damian C. Swift, Thomas Lockard, Olivier Heuze +8

Ru and Rh are interesting cases for comparing equations of state (EOS), because most general purpose EOS are semi-empirical, relying heavily on shock data, and none has been report…

Atom-in-jellium equations of state for cryogenic liquids

Thomas Lockard, Marius Millot, Burkhard Militzer +4

Equations of state (EOS) calculated from a computationally efficient atom-in-jellium treatment of the electronic structure have recently been shown to be consistent with more rigor…

High temperature ion-thermal behavior from average-atom calculations

Damian C. Swift, Mandy Bethkenhagen, Alfredo A. Correa +5

Atom-in-jellium calculations of the Einstein frequency were used to calculate the mean displacement of an ion over a wide range of compression and temperature. Expressed as a fract…

Atom-in-jellium equations of state in the high energy density regime

Damian C. Swift, Thomas Lockard, Richard G. Kraus +5

Recent path-integral Monte Carlo and quantum molecular dynamics simulations have shown that computationally efficient average-atom models can predict thermodynamic states in warm d…
